Eye on the Prize

I'm completely, madly, hopelessly in love.

A friend of mine pointed out a fairly new designer to me. She's from Australia and doesn't have too much for sale as of yet. Her newest outfits had my jaw on the floor, though. Everything has a style of rebel, rock n' roll, and classy trashiness to me. I'm just...I'm at a loss for words.

Here are some of the looks that stood out to me in particular.


This dress WILL be mine.









There is so much more on her blog. Platnium Evil, will you marry me?

Another huge sale!!!

Sadly, the two pairs of shoes I was most excited about recently (Colin Stuart & Jessica Simpson) just.don't.fit. My loss is your gain...

....and I hate to ask this, but if anyone can repost this for me on their My Space/Facebook/whatever, I'd be eternally in love with you. LOVE.

Interior Decorating

For the first time since we've been together (and we're coming up on 10 years together), my husband and I are getting a new bed. It's not going to be anything super glamorous - just a queen size bed with a most-likely modest frame.

Because we're getting this and eventually all new bedding and such, I want to update everything in our bedroom and make it less cluttered and more "funky"-looking.

I'm looking for unique ways to store/display my jewelry and accessories. People are big on suggesting jewelry boxes or those little jewelry tree thingies. While those are pretty, I'm looking for cooler ideas.

So help me out!! How do you store your stuff, or how would you LIKE to store yours??

Here are some of my picture inspirations:


(This one is my #1 favorite. GOD I love Erin Wasson.)









I could use any kinds of tips or advice! (Pictures are always a huge help!)

A lil bit of trash

I'm going to ignore the fact that the weather today in Baltimore is in the 40's, and instead, I'm going to concentrate on the fact that it was in the upper-60's all weekend. That kind of weather makes me think of nothing but summer fashion.

I usually take all summer clothing with a grain of salt. I figure that if it will keep me cool, that's all that matters. Well, what if it kept me cool AND I liked the way it looked?

I suppose getting some major inspiration this weekend didn't hurt either. My husband and I watched True Romance for the first time in years. Patricia Arquette's style in the movie had me on the floor. Red lipstick? Check. Cow-print miniskirt?! Check. Metallic blue Wayfarers?!?!?! CHECK!!!




Here are some styles I have my eye on right now.

Rock n' Roll Summer 2009 by cruxgothgirlie featuring Brian Atwood heels & wedges

Of course, it's not everyone's style, but I love the trashy 80's vibe that a lot of clothes out there have right now.




So what styles are YOU looking forward to rocking out this summer?
